    IAAF Diamond League Media Information Guide 2013 Www

    IAAF Diamond League Media Information Guide 2013 www.diamondleague.com 1/37 INTRODUCTION With the creation of the IAAF Diamond League we set out to reinvent the one-day meeting structure of our sport, to bring clarity to the top tier circuit of international invitational competition which takes place outside the IAAF World Championships and Olympic Games. While there remain many challenges ahead if we are to make further advances and cement the IAAF Diamond League’s position as one of the world’s major sports series, we firmly believe that we have made an exceptionally good start in the first three years of the new competition structure. The IAAF Diamond League has a worldwide audience and a broadcasting reach undreamt by the Golden League series which preceded it. Thanks to a 14 meeting circuit which covers Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the USA, a competition programme that includes virtually the full spectrum of Olympic track and field disciplines, the guarantee of the world’s greatest athletes battling to win 8 Million Dollars in prize money, accumulating points season long to win their event’s Diamond Race Trophy, the IAAF Diamond League has captured the public’s imagination like no other non-championship athletics competition. I eagerly look forward to the 2013 season of the IAAF Diamond League which commences in Doha and concludes at the end of August and beginning of September with the finals in Zurich and Brussels.

    Hypo Vorarlberg Geschichte Hypomeeting Bis 2019

    45 Jahre Leichtathletik-Geschichte Hypomeeting Götzis / Vorarlberg 1974 In diesem Jahr hat sich die LG Montfort entschieden, sich für die Durchführung der Österrei- chischen Mehrkampfmeisterschaften zu bewerben. Die im Juli 1973 durchgeführten Mehr- kampfmeisterschaften brachten neben dem großartigen österreichischen Rekord von Sepp Zeilbauer mit genau 8000 Punkten eine beachtliche Zuschauerresonanz. Die einen Monat später in Innsbruck ausgetragene Vorrunde im Mehrkampf-Europacup (Sepp Zeilbauer begeisterte wiederum mit neuem Rekord) brachte Armin Hug, Konrad Lerch, Elmar Oberhauser und Werner Ströhle auf den Gedanken, anstelle des nicht mehr durchgeführten traditionellen Mehrkampfmeetings in Schielleiten eine entsprechende internationale Veran- staltung im Mösle-Stadion abzuwickeln. Die vielen internationalen Kontakte von ÖLV-Mehr- kamptrainer Konrad Lerch zu seinen Trainerkollegen und AthletInnen sollte dabei die Basis für attraktive Startfelder bilden. 1975 Trotz widrigster Wetterverhältnisse (Regen und Kälte) gab es eine Jahresweltbestleistung von Burglinde Pollak/DDR im 5-Kampf und einen tschechischen Sieg im 10-Kampf durch Petr Kratky. Große Begeisterung der Athleten und Mannschaftsführer über die Organisation und die herzliche Atmosphäre, sowie ein kräfti- ger finanzieller Abgang kennzeichneten das erste Meeting. 1976 Die Volksbank konnte als Sponsor gewonnen werden, Subven- tionszusagen von Bund, Land und Marktgemeinde Götzis, sowie vom ASVÖ veranlassten die Initiatoren des Meetings Luis Fessler, Armin Hug, Konrad Lerch, Elmar Oberhauser und Werner Ströhle zu einem neuerlichen Versuch. Im Zehnkampf siegte mit Jahresweltbestleistung und neuem deutschem Rekord von 8.381 Punkten (8.302 Punktetabelle 1985) Guido Kratschmer vor dem mit 8.310 Punkten (8.219) österreichi- schen Rekord erzielenden Sepp Zeilbauer. Im Fünfkampf feier- te Diane Jones/Kanada einen sehr knappen Sieg (6 Punkte) vor Burglinde Pollak.
